They won't be from Banks. People are Phising (I think that is the correct spelling) for your personal information, for purposes of identity theft.

It's worse than that, they're looking for your credit card details. Just had a feller in Erith Kent order £2000 worth of furniture on the wife's credit card. The bank sorted it out so everything is ok, but it's abit hairy these days.
